Constructor Detail

AbstractHttpEntity

protected AbstractHttpEntity()

Protected default constructor. The contentType, contentEncoding and chunked attributes of the created object are set to null, null and false, respectively.

Method Detail

getContentType

public Header getContentType()

Obtains the Content-Type header. The default implementation returns the value of the contentType attribute.

Specified by:

getContentType in interface HttpEntity

Returns:

the Content-Type header, or null

getContentEncoding

public Header getContentEncoding()

Obtains the Content-Encoding header. The default implementation returns the value of the contentEncoding attribute.

Specified by:

getContentEncoding in interface HttpEntity

Returns:

the Content-Encoding header, or null

isChunked

public boolean isChunked()

Obtains the 'chunked' flag. The default implementation returns the value of the chunked attribute.

Specified by:

isChunked in interface HttpEntity

Returns:

the 'chunked' flag

setContentType

public void setContentType(Header contentType)

Specifies the Content-Type header. The default implementation sets the value of the contentType attribute.

Parameters:

contentType - the new Content-Type header, or null to unset

setContentType

public void setContentType(java.lang.String ctString)

Specifies the Content-Type header, as a string. The default implementation calls setContentType(Header).

Parameters:

ctString - the new Content-Type header, or null to unset

setContentEncoding

public void setContentEncoding(Header contentEncoding)

Specifies the Content-Encoding header. The default implementation sets the value of the contentEncoding attribute.

Parameters:

contentEncoding - the new Content-Encoding header, or null to unset

setContentEncoding

public void setContentEncoding(java.lang.String ceString)

Specifies the Content-Encoding header, as a string. The default implementation calls setContentEncoding(Header).

Parameters:

ceString - the new Content-Encoding header, or null to unset

setChunked

public void setChunked(boolean b)

Specifies the 'chunked' flag.

Note that the chunked setting is a hint only. If using HTTP/1.0, chunking is never performed. Otherwise, even if chunked is false, HttpClient must use chunk coding if the entity content length is unknown (-1).

The default implementation sets the value of the chunked attribute.

Parameters:

b - the new 'chunked' flag

consumeContent

@Deprecated
public void consumeContent()
                                throws java.io.IOException

Deprecated. (4.1) Either use HttpEntity.getContent() and call InputStream.close() on that; otherwise call HttpEntity.writeTo(java.io.OutputStream) which is required to free the resources.

The default implementation does not consume anything.

Specified by:

consumeContent in interface HttpEntity

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

and #writeTo(OutputStream)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
